EFCC Arrests Willie Obiano At Lagos Airport

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Thursday arrested the immediate past Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano, at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos.

Recall that Obiano
handed over official government documents to the incoming governor, Professor Charles Soludo at the Government House, Awka.

However, barely hours after handing over to his successor, Prof. Charles Soludo, it was learnt that Obiano made his way to Lagos after which he proceeded to the international airport.

Eaglessightnews learned from sources that the immigration had earlier alerted Efcc following the statement in a letter forwarded to Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service dated November 15, 2021 asking immigration to place Obiano on a watch list and inform it anytime he is travelling out of the country from any of the International airports and other points of entry and exit.

Details of the arrest are currently sketchy but unconfirmed sources claimed it connected to financial impropriety while in office.
